LOCAL INTELLIGENCE.
A Testimonial Benefit.

Elsewhere appears correspondence be-
tween many citizens and H S. Church,
lessee and manager of the New Metropol-
itan Theater and the Clunie Opera House.
1t relates to testimonial benefit rendered
to him. The letter to Mr.. Church is very
complimentary and justly So Since Mr..
Church took charge of the Metropolitan
and of the Opera House he has endeavored
to give the theater-going public varied
amusement, and the best possible that
could be secured to come TO Sacramento.
His management has been good, his treat
ment of his audiences gentlemanly. and
his promises faithfully kept He assumed
a heavy burden and has suffered financial
loss, and in addition loss CT time and en-
ergy. Sacramento is so near to San Fran
cisco, and the means of travel so easy. that
it makes the task very difficult to play
companies here that have appeared or are
to appear in San Francisco. No interior
town has handsomer theaters than Sacra-
mento, nor are those of any city in the
hands OF managers more business
like and manly than Mr.. Church.
he has declared that in catering
to public desire in the theatrical business
it is his intention to fight the battle until
he has secured for Sacramento the regular
appearance of the best dramatic compa-
MES, and won steady and paying patron
age for the two theaters. He ought to have
public announcement. The theaters should
be opened oftener than they are, and better
patronlzed, since they are essential factors
in any commercial city, fact business
interests should not lose sight of.
1t having been learned that the Tuxedo
Club proposed to give Mr.. Church benefit,
many citizens resolved to make the affair a
testimonial, and hence the correspondence
referred to- This manifestation of the ap-
probation of Mr.. Church's labor to main
tain legitimate houses of dramatic entertain
ment here ought to be made materially and
financially real benefit, and undoubtedly
those who have proposed it will see to It
that 1t is indeed made testimonial benefit,
the value of which will be measured not
by compliments, but by the dollars poured
into the box Office. Mr.. Church has &C
copied the proposition of the pro-
ponents of the benefit, and it will
take place Saturday evening next,
the Tuxedo Club taking the stage
with a varied programme and supported
by Noack's full orchestra. The officers of
the club are: d. Ross, President Z. Wach-
horst, Secretary, and J. Weisman, Treas
urer. The members are: Donald Ross, L.

AT the meeting of the Board of Super
yisors yesterday deed for the right of way
over his land, for a public highway from
r. \. Daniels to Sacramento county, was
read and accepted.
The following report of E. J. Croly, rela-
tive to the condition of the American river
bridge, was read, and, upon motion of Mr..
McMullen, was received and placed on file:
g Having been appointed by your Honor
able Board to examine and report the con-
dition of the bridge across the American
river, known as Lisles Bridge, 1 beg leave
to report as follows: That the bulkhead
structures or piers are badly decayed, and
consider them in a dangerous and unsafe
condition, and would not advise any re-
pairs to be made on said bridge, but would
respectfully advise that the bridge be closed
at once, and temporary structure be built
across the bed of the river until such time
as new bridge can be completed, deeming
it cheaper and safer for the county than to
repair said bridge. | make this report after
careful examination of said bridge
On motion of Mr.. Bates, it WAS ordered
that the American river bridge be closed,
and that notices be posted warning persons
from crossillS except at their own risk. 1t
was furtfrvsfed that a temporary ford
or crossing be constructed near the bridge
for the convenience of the public.
The following resolution was presented
by Mr.. McMullen, and adopted
WHEREAS, E. j. Croly, heretofore appointed as
an expert OF this Board to examine the bridge
known IS Lisles bridge has reported said
bridge to be in an unsafe condition and,
whereas. said expert has recommended that
sald bridge be Immediately closed; therefore,
be it
Resoires That this Board proceed at once to
advertise for bids for the construction of bridge
In the place of said condemned bridge
Mr.. Bates moved that the repairs made
on the Folsom Bridge by the King Iron
Bridge Company be accepted. Carried.
Upon motion of Mr.. McMullen it was Or
dered that the Board advertise for plans,
specifications and bids for combination
bridge at the Twelfth-street crossing of the
American river.
Mr.. Ross moved to amend Mr. McMullens
motion by inserting the word iron for
=" continuation Lost.
Mr.. McMullen's motion was carried. The
Board then adjourned to 10 O'Clock A. NJ.

How Is IL Done?

When an announcement appears to the
effect that real estate will be given away,
free and Internationally, the questions nat
urally arise, How is it done, and why?''
A little consideration will show that this is
a purely business proposition, and that by
giving away few lots demand is created
and the value of the adjoining property is
at once enhanced. Thus the liberality of
the promoters of the new town of Man
chester meets with its reward in the in
creased value of their property, and the
Office of the agent, James n Porter, Fourth
and streets, was yesterday thronged with
customers, eager to avail themselves of the
advantages offered, of which notice APP

ASSAULT TO MUgDER.-About . o'clock
last night, on l street, All Sing Chez and
All Fook fell into dispute as to whether
the former owed the latter % cents. As the
debate waxed hot All Fook cut it short by
whipping out a knife and slashing Chez
twice across the head. Chez bled profusely
and, growing faint, was carted OIL to the
receiving hospital, where it became neces-
sary to put in a number of stitches to close
the cash in his forehead. Officer Frazee
captured All Fook and booked him for as
sault TO murder

Painful Accident.

George w. Stout, the well-known hun
ter, who has shot waterfowl in this yicin-
ity for the market every season for some
thirty or more years past, and who has
probably burnt as much powder as any
man on the coast, met with a severe acct
dent Yesterday. He was duck-shooting on
Brannan Island, down the river, when he
noticed that the shot in one barrel of his
breech-loader had become loose through
the starting of the wad. Instead of throw
ing away the defective cartridge, he took
his wipinS-rOd and attempted to force the
wad back INTO the cartridge-shell. In ram
ming it down the cartridge was pressed
back upon the standing breech of the gun
with such force as to explode the primer,
sending the charge, rod and all, through his
right hand. A large part of the hand was
blown of, including the little finger Mr..
Stout was brought to the city last evening
and had the wound dressed. This accident
is only another proof of the oft-established
fact that even the most experienced hand
lers of firearms cannot escape disaster if
they transgress the laws of cause and effect.
A loaded cartridge never fails to resent
any attempt at undue familiarity.

A Good Suggestion.

Frank A. Smith in speaking of the i'm
provement of the plaza, makes the follow
ing suggestions: Leave the cross-walks as
they now are, and lay an artificial stone
pavement on the south side between the
row of eucalyptus trees where the old plank
sidewalk was. TIE twenty feet south of
this walk where the old hay market was,
he would have inclosed with granite curb
ing and filled with rich soil. This could
be sown to blue grass, set to flowers, and
otherwise made attractive, but beyond
and above all he suggests that couple of
rows OF citrus trees-oTanges, lines and
lemons, and few olives--be set out. Those
trees should be removed from nurseries by
the boxing process, so as to get as old trees
as possible. This, while it would beautify
the Park, would be attractive to Eastern
visitors. and nothing could be more pleas
ing to them than to see citrus fruits ripen-
ing upon our commons. There are many
reasons why this is good suggestion. In
the first place to move the walk to the ex-
IRENE south side would dsarrange the
diagonal walks through the Plaza, and the
intersection crossings would have to be
changed. As it is now, the fountain is in
the center of the grounds, as bounded by
the walks 1t would cost no more to take
care of this additional improvement than
it now does, and it would give the gardener
good exercise, which it appears he does not
now get. Nothing could be more attractive
than the grounds as suggested by MI
Smith, and to carry out his ideas would
cost the city less than the proposed changes.

HOME MISSIONARY ANNIVERSARY.

The anniversary of the Home Missionary
Society was held in the evening, Rev. DR..
S. H. Wiley, President, presiding. There
was a very large audience present. A
selection of scripture was read by Rev 0.
G. May, and prayer offered by Rev. w. W.
Pringle. Original hymns, composed for
the occasion by Miss Lucy NJ Fay, and
Rev. DR.. L. Stone, of San Francisco, were
sung by the choir and audience.
Rev. J. H. Warren, d. D., Superintend-
ent of the Society, read bis report. 1t
shows that during the past year nineteen
churches were organized with 400 mem
bership. Six missionary churches have
become self sustaining. Seventy seven
missionaries were employed, having charge
of so churches, 10 Sabbath-schoois and GO
mission stations. There are now 80 mis-
sionaries employed in the State, having
charge of 6S churches 80 mission stations
and 50 Sunday-schools. Nine churches
have been built costing SO, 600 and three
costing $4,000 are being constructed.
The denomination has branched out into
two complete General Associations and
Missionary Districts. Rev. Dr. Warren
has charge of the Northern District COM
prising forty-five counties, and Rev j. T.
Ford conducts the Southern Missionary
| District, which has seven counties. The
New York Society has appropriated $l9, 900
| for home work in California the present
year, to which will be added all that is
| raised by California churches for Home
| Mission work.
| Major-General o. o. Howard delivered a
very able and interesting address on the
general subject of Home Missions. and
was followed by Rev. c. d. Barrows, who
is Chairman of the. Finance Committee of
| the Society, and to whose efforts, in con-
nection With those of Rev. Dr. Warren, the
| financial success for the work during the
past year, is largely due. DR.. Barrows'
| address was eloquent and very effective.
Both addresses were closely listened to and
| frequently applauded.
| The facts were stated by Dr. Barrows
that during the past year the California
Home Missionary Society raised and sent
| TO the parent society in New York over
| S., 167, and now have in hand to send
| s., 800. Besides these amounts the churches,
| by not asking for aid, and raising their
own support, saved 81, $50. Making a total
of 50, 542, or almost the $4,000, which Dr.
| Barrows stated at the last anniversary, the
church should strive to raise during the
year.
| The service was closed by singing an
original missionary hymn composed by
Rev DR.. Benton, in which the entire audi
ence joined.
After the close OF the anniversary meet
| ing the officers of the Society for the ensu-
| ing year were elected as follows: Presi-
dent, Rev. S. II. Wiley, D. D.. Vice Presi.
